February 2012 at Part Time Studios
Planar Split
- a two person show featuring the works from the outrageous minds of James Ulmer and Lance Simmons
Opening Reception: Friday, February 3, 2012, 6 – 10 pm
with live music from Dick Neff and Charles Cohen
“Planar” refers to that which is flat or two dimensional. The works of Simmons and Ulmer are two sides of the same stock. In these works both artists allude to a certain dilated perception through their use of simplistic two-dimensional imagery.
James Ulmer presents new drawings that are at once playful and provocative. Using a format of clusters and compartments James creates an amalgamation of scattered memories both real and imagined.
On his side of Planar Split, Lance Simmons explores anachronistic sci-fi folk art through configurations of marker and silk-screened ink on paper. Aspects of standard third and fourth dimensions are minimized to allow for smoother flux of further adjacent reaches.
